Absolutely saltwater-resistant UHPC structural concrete for seawater desalination plants

Every UHPC binder designed and produced by us, with which UHPC concrete is produced in the right mixture, is already waterproof from a layer thickness of 10 mm. UHPC concretes are absolutely seawater resistant, as they have proven for more than 30 years in the offshore and potash industries.

In seawater desalination plants, UHPC concrete can replace all plastic, glass, aluminium and carbon fibre structures such as piping and tank structures. The cost and service life difference between plastic structures and UHPC concrete structures shows clear advantages for a UHPC concrete structure.

UHPC concrete is non-combustible and highly wear-resistant. It can be produced as mortar, casting compound and shotcrete. The minimum compressive strength is well above 100 MPa in the standard binder systems. In Arab countries, our UHPC desert sand concrete can also be used. It consists of desert sand and a special UHPC binder.
